Special BellaCopper Heat Diffuser features- All BellaCopper Heat Diffusers and Defroster Plates are square and feature rounded edges and corners (no sharp edges). All BellaCopper Heat Diffusers and Defroster Plates come shrink wrapped too, to preserve the bright and shiny finish – right up until your first use – when they will change color right away. Our unique square shape allows multiple BellaCopper heat diffusers to be used side by side on adjacent burners or in the oven to increase the cooking area. Make part of your stove a French Flat! Works great with both large and small pans. They are ideal for ceramic and pottery stove-top cookware, such as cazuelas and tagines. Excellent for all gas and electric ranges, ceramic & glass stove tops too. (For glass top stoves please see tips and cautions in column to the left) For low to medium heat settings - simmer with it. Great for RVs, Yachts, and camping too. It spreads the heat from one small burner all across your pan. And the ability to use multiple pots & pans on one burner really increases the cooking options (It's a stove multiplier!). Works to control hot spots in RV ovens too! They will change color with the first use. Clean them with Barkeepers Friend, or a lemon and rock salt if you want - or not, we rarely clean ours. For tough baked on food and scale go ahead and use something like Comet cleanser - that always works - it will scuff the surface to a matte finish a bit, but it gets the scale off. Note: Don't wash in cold water when the copper is hot - this can lead to warping - Just let the copper cool on the stove first. 100% All American made: from the mining and refining of the Copper ore in the American West, to finish manufacturing in Ventura, California.
